After both children had woken up, they walked to 'their' stream. They called it their stream because they were usually the only ones to use it. There, they started to wash out the bowls they had used for dinner.

'Sleep well Kagome?' Inuyasha mentally asked the girl.

'Yeah, you?'

'Okay I guess'

She smiled. 'That's good.'

'Yeah...'

'And after we finish washing the bowls, we can-' she stopped and looked at something in the water.

'What is it Kag-chan?'

She pointed in the water. 'It looks like a jewel! And it's pretty!'

'I dont see anything Kag-chan.'

She stared dumb-founded at him. 'It's right there.' she pointed to it again, and seeing the confusion on his face, she went and picked it up herself. 'See?'

'Oh...its pretty can I touch it?'

'Sure!' she handed it over to him.

He rolled the little jewel in his hand. Then handed it back to her. 'That's cool Kag-chan.'

She smiled again. 'Thanks. Now let's get the bowls back to Kikyou-sama.'

'Okay!'

'Race you!'

'k' He said taking off quickly.

'Wha? Hey! You cheated!' she raced after him.

'No I didn't'

'Oh well, I'll still beat you.' she ran past him.

'Oh no you wont!' He said picking up speed.

The two raced each other back to the village, and both reached it at the same time.

'I WON' they both thought triumphantly.

'Nu-uh Kagome I won!'

'No you didn't!'

'Yes I did!'

"Kagome. Inuyasha, why are you just standing there?" Kikyou asked stepping out of the house she lived in with Kaede.

"Kagome keeps saying she won the race, when we both know I was the winner!"

"From watching you...I believe you tied...."

'Then I guess we both won.' Kagome thought happily.

Inuyasha then remembered something. "Here Kikyou-sama." he said, giving her the bowls. "We washed them out."

She ruffled his hair with a smile. "Arigatou Inuyasha, Arigatou Kagome, it saves us a lot of trouble when you wash the bowls for us, do you want to come inside?"

"Sure!"

"Mother, Inuyasha and Kagome are coming in!"

"Alright." a voice called back.

Kikyou led them in and pointed to two chairs if they wanted to sit down.

They sat down, and Kagome fiddled around with the gem from earlier.

"What do you have there Kagome?" Kikyou asked.

She showed her the gem. "She found it at the stream." Inuyasha told Kikyou.

"Oh...its really pretty Kagome."

Kagome grinned happily.

Kikyou smiled back.

'Do you think you could make it into a necklace Inuyasha?'

He nodded. 'Sure.'

He then looked at Kikyou. "Kikyou-sama? Do you have any thread?"

"What color?"

"Any color."

"Thank you." he said, then somehow managed to get a hole through the gem. He fastened it together into a necklace, and gave it back to Kagome, who put it around her neck.

'Here Kag-chan.' He thought with a smile.

'Thank you!'

'Not a problem.'

'We'd better get going then.' Inuyasha and Kagome stood up. "Thank you Kikyou-sama. See you later."

"Bai-Bai Kids...." She said waving.

They waved back, and then left.
